No riff, no blast beat, but a sonic alchemy that defies labels.
When Melancholy Meets Magic: Matt Matteo & &Tilly’s Soulful Collision
Ah, Matt Matteo—the French troubadour who once made us chuckle with J’en ai dit des conneries and later broke hearts with Sylvie Filloux in J’aimerais voir le monde. Remember him? Well, he’s back, but this time, he’s dancing in the shadowy grooves of existential angst alongside Czech indie-folk duo &Tilly. Let’s unpack this collab that’s as unexpected as rainbows in a thunderstorm.
“Un autre” isn’t just a track—it’s a mood. Dark, brooding, and brutally honest, it gnaws at that universal itch: What if we could shed our skin? Matteo’s lyrics, co-produced with &Tilly, twist solitude into poetry. “Becoming someone else means erasing yourself,” he warns, while Direct-Actu.fr calls it “a gut-punch to society’s pressure to conform.” Ouch, but true. Ever felt like an alien at your own party? Yeah, this one’s for you.
Imagine bubble guns and cotton panties meets synthpop melancholy—that’s &Tilly. Tilly’s voice? A honey-dipped dagger. Vii’s production? A sonic kaleidoscope. Their December 2024 single Paper Plane soared past 200K streams, and their Spotify stats? Let’s just say they’ve mastered the art of turning fragile emotions into anthems.
Post-Papier Froissé, Matteo’s been busy. L.A. alt-rock jams with Pearl Jam’s alumni? Check. A swerve into electro-rock with producer Yvan Tarlay? Double-check. On en rira demain teases his upcoming demo—a side-project that’s equal parts grit and glitter.
It’s yin and yang. &Tilly’s dreamy introspection collides with Matteo’s raw, restless energy. Together, they’ve crafted a track that’s less “duet” and more “dialogue between lost souls.” The result? A hauntingly beautiful reminder that loneliness, when shared, becomes art.
In a world obsessed with filters, Un autre is a raw nerve. Press play, let it sting, then heal. And hey—if you’re gonna drown in existential dread, might as well do it with a killer soundtrack.
